IntegerIsNumber: Just confirmed with BrightPoint that ETA is 23rd this month. Could be earlier or could be later but 23rd is the ETA they have right now.
The shipment will only be for allocated store that have already taken pre-orders.? It will be a small shipment and there is next shipment after this one showing up on their system just yet. So which meant that 32GB version will be limited in number and won't be widely available until a few more months later.

Update:

Do not jump for joy just yet. We'll wait for the definite confirmation.

I know this is not suppose to be in this section but its easier to get hold of you Integer...where was it that you got your 64GB SD?

I got mine off eBay seller.

link as such? are you happy with the service and price etc?

thanks.

Rang NL and apparently they aren't aware of the ETA of 23/27. Fun and games, I asked him do you know the date 23/27 he goes yes, but no one is willing to commit to that date so I won't commit to that ha ha.

Have confirmed that Parallel Imported (Queen St Branch) can get the 32GB Pebble Blue by Friday if order is made today. Price is the downside as the cheapest quoted for it is $1048. Might pay to stick it out until end of the month and see if it does come.

Have not used Parallel Imported before and am sceptical about their warranty process, especially how high the fault rate of these SGS3's are.

I bought an S2 from PI and guess what I opened up the box and it said it has 10times custom kernel installed.

Can't returned it because they said I did it. :( Dodge!
So i've been using it until now. :(

Called Noel Leeming and they haven't contacted or following up with BrightPoint/Supplier since the 20th June. So it has been 21 days and they left us in the dark without update. Also the CS told me that they were told by the supplier on the 20th June that it will be in 2 to 3 weeks. Now it is the 3rd week, I still see or hear nothing.

Called the Hamilton store just now, they put me on hold for 15mins and then

Noel Leeming CS: "Sorry we have no information regarding your order, like I said when you buying or preorder for this item you would have been told that there is no ETA and you will have to wait for it. blah blah blah"

Me: But when I first made my preorder on this item, I have been told that the ETA is the 15th June 2012 and now it is nearly 1 month overdue and you're telling me that I should have known about this?

NL CS: I don't know who told you about the ETA but we have looked into our system and we do not have an ETA and you should know clearly before buying this item.

Me: ........! "Silently (*#^$&@@&^$^@&&@%#^@&)". Nevermind then. Good bye.

Called the HeadOffice again and said that I've on hold for 1/4 of an hour and still have no update. The operator quickly said I'll chasing this with BrightPoint for you. Got a phone call afterward and the news was not good.

NL Head Office: I'm sorry, I just talked to BrightPoint and they do not have an ETA on this.
ME: FACE PALM!

There is no HOPE!

Mine expires at the end of the month lol, I'm not waiting any longer after that. I ordered mine on 1 June. NL know that it may get released at the end of the month but they don't want to say that.. if Harvey Norman are confident that it will get released then it should work out ok??

Kind of sad to see that PI has this before the launched Country (NZ) does.
